It reads....

"Dear Seller,
My Name is Terry James .As regarding your advert for (LUV: 1980 Street/Strip)A
client of mine is interested in purchasing your goods .I would like to know the
present condition of the goods and also know the actual price you are offering
to sell the goods.Also his mode of payment would be by a Certified Check and
also i would gladly like to handle the shippmentof the goods.I will want to view
the pics of the turbo if you don,tmind and also kindly get back to me with these
information for payment issument.Name,Address,City,State,Zipode and telephone
numbers(home,cell and work).I'll be expecting to read from you soon with
acceptance on my offer.

Best Regards.

Terry James"


WTF?

Since when did the LUV registration portion of this page become a classified ad!?! Thats where "Terry" would have gotten that information, because I meant to type '81' instead of '80' when I filled that out. And the turbo....WHAT turbo!!?? I don't have a turbo! And how does that have anything to do with my LUV?! Its says nothing about a turbo on the registery! And last time I checked, I was NOT selling my LUV.

Email was from terry_james2004@outgun.com. If anyone gets an email from that dude, best not to open it. Who knows what virus it got with it.

Oh and if this Mr. Terry James reads this...my LUV is NOT for sale!!

A while back I had a 79 Trans Am and some dude from Africa e-mailed about purchasing it. I think people can just scan through a registry some how and get whatever they need to try to scam someone.

its a way to steal your car...... they get all your info and make up a fake title and since they have all your info, they can make it look legit. and once they get all the info, name addy phone and the vin (would be asked for later, saying something like a background check), they have the title made then report the vehicle stolen...... <<<just my guess.....

LMAO how dumb. Dude cant even spell or punctuate at all. LOL @ "I would like to view pics of the turbo" What a dumbass. I have gotten offers like that a bunch of times. I figure if they cant speak english fluently then they can eat shit, Because they are probably scammers.

I think this guy's been seriously surfing this site cause i got an e-mail too..about a month ago.Ijust didn't open it cause i didn't know the name.

I'm gonna sign up the e-mail addy for a s@@t load of spam. he'll have to abandon the address. won't really make a dent but it'll irritate the jerk if he's gotta geta new account.

I've heard similar stories. The cashiers check they send is counterfeit. By the time your bank finds out, you are out whatever you had for sale.
